I am not one to write often, and even more seldom at length. Certain recent events, though, make this a worthy occasion for doing such. George Lucas caused quite the ruckus both in “The Business” and on the Internet this past Tuesday, the 30th of October, 2012, when he made the …

Mike Baron wrote the very first comic I ever read: Star Wars: The Last Command.

If you have no life, you may be aware of the heated debate surrounding the fact that Greedo shot first. Note that I said fact. In the 1977 theatrical edition of Star Wars , Han Solo shoots the bounty hunter Greedo in cold blood. In the 1997 Special Edition and …

There’s little to say by way of introduction except that (1.) Barbara Hambly writes the way I’ve always wanted to write, (2.) she personally maintains an endlessly amusing Facebook fan page, and (3.) she is surprisingly gracious about interview requests from strangers with dubious journalistic credentials. (You should subscribe to that …

I could introduce this interview with the usual journalistic chatter: “Kevin J. Anderson is the internationally bestselling author of numerous novels in the Star Wars and Dune settings, as well as his own Saga of Seven Suns—” But you already know that, and if you didn’t you could learn it …

Neil Armstrong was the first hero of my generation. His crowning achievement came when I was 7 months old, and was the culmination of a lifetime of quiet courage and unblinking boldness. Every child I knew, mostly boys like me, held 3 prized toys among their Lincoln Logs and Tonka …

What is Port Haven?

Port Haven is a Star Wars Fan Forum created by former members of the Official Star Wars Message Boards on StarWars.com as a refuge for our community after those message boards were closed. However, Port Haven has evolved beyond the small community that moved here initially into a much larger community for the discussion of Star Wars and a variety of other topics. We are a place for you to discuss your favorite fandoms and even for sharing your own creative work. Yet, even this is not the end of Port Haven. As we are discovering ourselves, we are constantly evolving into something bigger and more interactive. There are big things to come in the future and we hope that you will join us as we grow together.
